Brooklyn Queens Land Trust Sign

Objective

Illustrate and design an educational sign about the compost cycle to be used by local community gardens in New York City as well as gardens all across the globe.

Process

Natalia Sucre and Anne Schoeneborn art directed and wrote the text. I designed the layout and illlustrated all the imagery using ink on paper which I then digitized in Adobe Illustrator. Then I colorized the illustrations, smoothed out rough lines from the original sketch, and added texture to the background using a hi res scan of handmade paper. The sign was then printed on aluminum, optimal for outdoor wear and tear.
